Myths About Homeopathy

There are plethora of myths surrounding Homoeopathy which have been used to discredit this highly efficacious healing art and science. Here is an attempt to clear all the myths about Homeopathy so as to understand this science in a better way.

Myth – Allopathic or other treatment cannot be taken with Homeopathy

This is a misconception. If a person is on long continued allopathic treatment, especially steroids or “life saving drugs”, discontinuing the medicine abruptly might cause sudden increase in the intensity of his symptoms. So the best way is to reduce the dosage of the allopathic medicine gradually as the improvement starts & then stop them.

Few physicians restrict the intake of onion, garlic, tea, coffee etc. along with homeopathic medicine. But the researches have shown that there is no effect of such things on the efficacy of the medicine if these are taken in moderation & a significant gap is maintained between them & the medicine. Homoeopathic medicines act well on patients habituated to coffee and betel. Like in Indian people habitually consume coffee and Homeopathic medicines are also widely consumed with appreciable results.

Myth – Homeopathy is a “Slow Acting System”

The action of medicine depends on whether the disease is acute or chronic. Acute diseases are of recent origin, e.g. cold, fever, headache that develop very quickly and if the correctly selected medicine is given that develop very quickly and if the correctly selected medicine is given to the patient, it produces very quick results. The chronic diseases are those which have a long history, e.g. Bronchitis, Asthma, Eczema, Arthritis etc. These occur as a result of continuous suppression by other systems of medicine or when the acute diseases have not been treated properly. These type of chronic diseases will definitely require some time to be cured.

Myth – Disease increases after taking treatment

Everyone knows that homoeopathic medicines are given on the basis of symptom similarity. Primary action of the medicine may be observed by the patient as an aggravation of his disease but in true sense it is only homoeopathic aggravation which is a part of curative process. When using allopathic medicines simultaneously do not withdraw them suddenly but taper them off.

Myth – Homeopathic medicines should not be touched

One can always take the medicine on one’s hand provided the hands are clean.

Myth – Homeopathy is only good for children

Homoeopathic medicines are equally good for children and adults. If homoeopathic treatment is given to children right from the beginning, it not only helps to remove the disease completely but also increases their resistance and prevents the disease from becoming chronic, thereby, developing stronger generations.

Myth – Pathological & other investigations are not required in homeopathy

Although for initial homeopathic prescription investigations are not required but to treat the case holistically and to know about its prognosis appropriate investigations are a must. They also help in proper management of the case and its follow up.

Myth – Single medicine is the first choice as per homeopathic principles but the complex symptom picture presented by the patient makes it difficult to prescribe the similimum at times. combinations

Since I am a vivid learner of Homeopathy since 50 years or more and prefer selection of single medicine as simili similimum curantor and find it’s magnificent performance in most of the cases.
I do feel to learn modern developments and research in all fields of Homeopathy. Presently I am baffled with a case of an unmarried girl aged 20 + fair complexioned with amiable nature , single child of a couple with mother’s history of painful irregular menstruation happened to be my youngest daughter. Height 5-9″ had been suffering from irregular menses since 4-5 years having overian cysts.
I had prescribed Nat-mur-natranatum,whch gave her complete relief. Now since a year the medicine was not working well and at a stretch 2 months elapsed , but despite of signs before menses : pain in breast and lower abdomen , mense was absent. I had started Conium 30, it paid good result, though somewhat delayed it started the cycles.Since she is my youngest grand daughter I am anxious about her future, when I may not be on this planet to bid adieu to good earth. Will you please help me in this case as a fellow traveller ? With highest regards I shall await your reply.
